Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 1,000,705, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 1,000,705 | |
| -1 | -1,000,705 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,000,705.
Example:
1 x 1,000,705 = 1,000,705
and
-1 x -1,000,705 = 1,000,705
Notice both answers equal 1,000,705
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,000,705 and divide it by 2:
1,000,705 ÷ 2 = 500,352.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 500,352.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 1,000,705 | |
| -1 | -1,000,705 |
Now, we try dividing 1,000,705 by 3:
1,000,705 ÷ 3 = 333,568.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 333,568.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 1,000,705 | |
| -1 | -1,000,705 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,000,705 ÷ 4 = 250,176.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 250,176.25 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 1,000,705 | |
| -1 | 1,000,705 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 61 | 85 | 193 | 305 | 965 | 1,037 | 3,281 | 5,185 | 11,773 | 16,405 | 58,865 | 200,141 | 1,000,705 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -61 | -85 | -193 | -305 | -965 | -1,037 | -3,281 | -5,185 | -11,773 | -16,405 | -58,865 | -200,141 | -1,000,705 |
